Commitment to Privacy
Aligning with our beliefs in personal privacy, it is our responsibility to ensure that the use of personal information collected on our websites only strengthens our business objectives as well as our reputation. As part of our mission to complete cyber privacy and safety, we have adopted this Privacy Policy. The extent and type of information within these websites depends on the information you provide to us through our contact mailboxes and/or through any registration processes on our sites.
Collecting Information
Our primary goal in collecting information from you is to provide you with a positive experience while you use our Website, to hear your comments, to respond to your inquiries, and to provide you with access to our services. We may collect both personal information (“Personal Information”) and information about your use of the Website (“Non-personal Information”). Personal Information may include your name, street address, email address and telephone number. Non-personal Information may include both: 1) technical information, such as the type of Internet browser you use, the date and time you access the website, and your Internet protocol address; and, 2) service usage information, such as your site visits and page views, records and history about transactions and preferences, such as property listings you have searched, and the demographic, geographic, and psychographic information, and other feedback you supply to us. Also, when you register or create an online account/profile with us, contact customer service, participate in our surveys, or send us testimonials, feedback or submissions, you are providing us with your personal information.
Cookies
We also utilize cookies. Cookies are small files that we transfer to your computer’s hard drive through your web browser to enable us to recognize you when you return to our website. Cookies let us identify you to provide you a personalized experience on our website. We use cookie and web beacon technology to track which pages on our sites our visitors view. Most Internet browsers permit you to erase or block cookies. If you configure your browser to remove or reject cookies, though, you may not be able to use the full functionality of our Website.
Use of Information
When we collect information from you, such information may be used for one or more of the following reasons:
- Process and complete your profile and any Website transactions
- identify your service and property listing preferences so that we can notify you of new or additional services and property listings that might be of interest to you
- improve service offerings and customer service
- notify you about new services, features, promotions and special offers we think you will find valuable
- provide to you newsletters
- respond to your inquiries
- measure the advertising effectiveness of our online and other advertisements and offers
- customize the advertising, property listings and services you see
- conduct research
- help us understand Website activity and improve your use of our Website
- collect aggregated site-visitation statistics
- help us prevent fraud and minimize credit risk.
In order for us to maintain the accuracy of your Personal Information and improve our communication with you, we may also combine the information we collect with other public demographic information. On rare occasions we may also be required to disclose your information as is required by law pursuant to lawful requests such as subpoenas, court or agency orders, or as we may reasonably determine to be necessary to protect our rights or the rights of others, to avert harm to persons or property, or to enforce this Privacy Policy.
Sharing Information
We may share certain Personal Information we collect about you with third parties who perform services for us or with whom we contract for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. For example: we may use third parties to host our Website, operate certain features, send e-mails, print or mailings, authorize and process your payments, and analyze data and our advertising effectiveness. These third-party service providers are given the information they need to perform their designated functions and we do not authorize them to use or disclose your Personal Information for their own or any others’ marketing purposes.
We may share Non-personal Information with select third parties on an anonymous basis (that is, in a way that does not connect your Non-personal Information to your Personal Information or disclose your Personal Information in any fashion).
On rare occasions, we may be required to disclose your Personal Information as required by law and as necessary to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on us. Or we may need to do so to protect our customer’s rights.
